From Aashiqui 2 to Wake Up Sid: 6 Bollywood films that made rain unforgettable

Set over the course of a single rainy night in Mumbai, Chameli follows an investment banker whose car breaks down during a downpour, forcing him to seek shelter with a street sex worker. As they spend the night together, conversations replace first impressions, and the relentless rain becomes more than a backdrop, it traps them in the same space long enough to strip away prejudice and reveal vulnerability. The film’s intimate storytelling is driven by the monsoon, which shapes every turning point in their unexpected encounter.
